Cucumber Twine

Cucumber rope Valent Twine

Valent rope has been specially developed by Royal Brinkman and is used in various types of cultivation. In the cultivation of cucumbers with high wire hooks, Valent rope is being used more and more often. The cucumber twine provides support for the cucumber plant, so that the crop can grow. Moreover, cucumber twine is flexible and available in various thicknesses and colours.

Types of cucumber twine

Besides the fact that cucumber twine is available in different colours and thicknesses, you can also opt for twine made of various materials:

• Polypropylene twine: a non-biodegradable twine, made of plastic material. This cucumber twine does not absorb moisture, so there is no risk of rope breakage. 
• Jute cucumber twine: Jute twine is extracted from plants of the genus Corchorus. The bast fibres are long and soft and can be used to make strong threads. This rope is generally suitable for growing green beans, cucumbers and melons. 
• Bio valent twine: This twine is 100% organic compostable and is made of high quality PLA. There are several types of organic twine, but Bio Valent twine is the strongest. It is the twine that absorbs the least amount of moisture, which reduces the risk of twine breakage and fungus.
